Abstract
Graduate studies an academic prestige for a field. Perhaps of special interest to the scholarly community, is the growing interest of studying tourism at the doctoral level, as indicated by the small but growing number of doctoral dissertations focusing on tourism. This is certainly a promising development which requires attention. Research subjects of dissertation between universities are important knowledge fields about forms of knowledge networks structures in a scientific community and flow of knowledge traffic. The study provides an analysis of all tourism dissertations submitted and accepted for higher degrees by all participating Australian universities, institutes, and colleges in 1991-2010. The aims of this study revealed to tourism dissertation knowledge network structure and subjects of dissertation in periodical manner. The data was collected from National Dissertation Database of YOK between years of 1991-2010. Social Network Analysis is used to define network structure and to examine links between structures.

Abstract
Doktora tez çalışmaları bir alanın akademik anlamda ilerlemesinde önemli bir araç olarak görülmektedir. Turizm alanında yazılmış doktora tezlerinin incelenmesi, turizmde akademik alanın hangi ölçüde geliştiğinin ve hangi noktalarda ilerlediğinin görülmesi açısından önem taşımaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı, 1991-2010 yılları arasında Türkiye’de üretilen doktora tezlerinde ele alınan araştırma konularının incelenerek turizm bilgi ağ yapısının ortaya çıkarılması ve yıllar içerisindeki değişiminin incelenmesidir. Veriler Yüksek Öğretim Kurumu Tez Merkezi’nde sisteme girilmiş tezlerden elde edilmiştir. Çalışmada verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve sosyal ağ analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda turizm alanında üretilen tezlerde ele alınan araştırma konuları çerçevesinde disiplinler arası bir yaklaşımdan ziyade daha merkezi, kapalı ve durağan bir bilgi sisteminin oluştuğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada ayrıca doktora tezlerinin üretildiği üniversiteler, üretim yılları ve araştırma konuları arasındaki ilişkilere ilişkin bulgulara ve değerlendirmelere yer verilmiştir.
